Business need
The solutions that Sensor-Technik Wiedemann develops are often highly specialised to a particular industry or industry sub-segment to cater for their very particular requirements. The decreasing price of sensor components and increasing ubiquity of communications has allowed these solutions to take advantage of the collation of vehicle Micro-Controller Unit (MCU), orientation and location information in an increasing holistic manner. With some services, such as agricultural soil usage efficiency, not being possible prior to this information being available.
As a solution developer, Sensor-Technik Wiedemann recognises that there is constant tension between the customer’s demand for a bespoke solution to their particular business problem and their desire to rapidly exploit the benefits of a productised turn-key solution. Sensor-Technik Wiedemann sought to use common customisable components to develop bespoke solutions for their commercial and government customers. Thereby, reducing both time to market and time to value.
